    They're trying in CA. There seem to be a lot more interests at stake in CA, including Indian Tribes and card rooms.

    These licenses will cost a Fortune. I have to be a bit skeptical as to how much money must be going towards certain officials campaigns to get their "supporter" to the front of the line.
